Search & Counsel
Retained executive search for the investigations and disputes ecosystem.
Retained executive search, investigations practice
Search & Counsel is a retained executive search firm with four specialist practices: forensic accounting, corporate investigations, digital forensics and eDiscovery, and disputes and arbitration. It identifies, benchmarks, and confidentially approaches partners, in-house specialists, and senior practitioners on behalf of advisory firms, law practices, and corporates across APAC, EMEA, and the Americas.
Senior hiring in the investigations and disputes ecosystem is information-asymmetric and reputation-sensitive. Most search providers compete on speed of CV flow rather than depth of pool understanding. Clients receive lists; what they need is a structured map of who is actually movable, on what terms, and against what comparable benchmarks - in a market small enough that a single misstep is remembered.
Bespoke retained search mandates across four specialist practices. Confidential candidate intelligence. Salary, jurisdictional, and seniority benchmarking drawn from in-house research. Conducted under Singapore Employment Agency Licence 23S1672.
Retained search fees on completion. Long-term client relationships rather than transactional volume.
The transactional revenue line of the Feltan system. Search & Counsel funds the wider intelligence layer and supplies the deepest single source of senior-investigations market signal feeding it.
